While talking, the two of them walked quickly down the stairs, where Meng Yue stood in front of the building and again closed her eyes to sense.

Suddenly, she opened her eyes as a faint joyful look flashed across them. She raised her right hand with palm facing upward. Next, a glowing green little grass sprouted from her palm.

Both of them immediately fixed their eyes on the grass. The grass hadn’t grown tall, just about two centimeters in height. It swayed in Meng Yue’s palm, swinging left then right.

Catching their scents, the surrounding zombies instantly turned back and stumbled toward them again. At a short distance, three figures had been running swiftly on all fours in the direction where Lin Qiao was moving to.

Those were the level-five zombie and its two underlings. To chase after Lin Qiao or to avoid being targeted by Wu Chengyue and Meng Yue, the three of them were running incredibly fast.

Wu Chengyue quickly glanced at the direction where they were moving to, then stopped paying attention to them as he kept staring at the little grass in Meng Yue’s palm. Meanwhile, a hand of his never stopped swinging left and right from time to time.

Thin purple lightning bolts flashed from the sky, clearing out all the zombies that had been approaching the two of them. The lightning bolts surrounded them in a circle and gathered into a giant beam of light that covered them.

Both of them concentratedly gazed at the grass, which slowly became still after swaying for a while. One of its two blades bent down while the other one rose slantingly, pointing in a direction like a pointer.

Then, the two of them found out that the direction which the grass was pointing at was exactly where the level-five zombie went to, which Wu Chengyue had sensed just now.

“That way.” Said Meng Yue with certainty.

Wu Chengyue slightly frowned and asked, “Are you sure? A few high-level zombies went that way just now.”

Meng Yue paused briefly and then turned around to look at him as she asked, “How many? High-level zombies? Was the female zombie one of them?”

She had concentrated on the grass just now, so her sensation toward the surrounding environment had weakened by seventy percent. Therefore, she hadn’t noticed anything suspicious around her.

Wu Chengyue shook his head and said, “I didn’t sense her vibe. But, those few zombies seem to be chasing after something. They were running really fast.”

“Chase after what? Can it be that female zombie?” asked Meng Yue.

People had to admit that women had sharp intuition sometimes, especially those like Meng Yue who had a special superpower.

Hearing her, Wu Chengyue felt it to be a real possibility. Earlier on, he didn’t think of it because he hadn’t found out that Ling Ling was also moving in this direction. But now, as these two factors were linked together, this possibility turned to be high.

With this thought, he couldn’t stay still anymore. He turned back and dimmed the surrounding lightning bolts, then walked toward the dark-green off-road car that he drove over. Meanwhile, he waved a hand and swept across the zombies that had been trying to climb up his car with a few lightning bolts, which were slightly thicker than those he used for his own protection earlier.

Following a series of thunderclaps, the zombies which had gathered around or on top of his car were immediately struck into piles of dark ash.

When the two of them quickly walked to the car door, it opened up for them.

“Chief...” A soldier sitting in the driver’s seat turned his head and greeted them.

Wu Chengyue nodded, then bent down and sat into the car. He pointed at the direction that the grass blade pointed out just now and said, “Go that way… Drive fast! ”

Meng Yue got into the back seat of the car. The little grass in her palm had already disappeared.

“Understood!” The soldier immediately nodded and pressed the accelerator while neatly turning the steering wheel.?With that, the car backed quickly, then steadily turned around and rushed onto the road.

Lin Qiao, who was sitting in the back seat of another car, hadn’t yet known that two groups of pursuers were coming after her. And, she wasn’t a match for either of those groups.

She was studying the map, trying to find out which way to go while Xie Dong was driving. However, after she spent quite a while reading the map, he told her that she didn’t need to study about the roads in this area, because as long as they drove on the highway, he would know where to go.

Xie Dong was more familiar with this area than Lin Qiao. Therefore, he didn’t need her to show him the way for the time being. He already knew the road from which he could access the highway that led toward Zhe Province.

Lin Qiao glared at him with dissatisfaction. Why didn’t he tell her earlier on that he knew the way, but let her read the map alone pointlessly? She wasn’t familiar with this area, so she wanted to figure out the route.

To find out if the car could take her space along while she was in, Lin Qiao entered her space from within the car, leaving Xie Dong driving alone.

As a result, she wasn’t in the car anymore when she came back out, remaining at the exact spot where she had entered the space from; the car was already a hundred meters away. As the experiment had failed, Lin Qiao had no choice but to sit in the car bored.

She was going to water the strawberry plants in her space which she had randomly planted and had actually survived. After a few days of observation, she found that the putrid smell of those strawberries had been slowly weakening, maybe because of the soil or because she had watered them with the lake water. Anyway, the area with strawberry plants was no longer as smelly as it used to be.

Before, Lin Qiao thought that the strawberries she transplanted to her space would have a low survival rate. But unexpectedly, all of them survived; not a single plant died. Therefore, during the past few days when she stayed in her space with nothing more to do, she cleared the strawberry field of weeds with her claws, and picked the ripe strawberries, washing them up and serving to Wu Yueling in a bowl.

She remembered the utterly confused expression which was shown on Xie Dong’s face when he saw the cluttered strawberry field of hers. She didn’t even know what that expression was supposed to mean.

‘What kind of strawberries are these? They don’t even look normal? They’re mutant and poisonous, aren’t they? She’s a zombie, but why is she planting strawberries? Do zombies eat strawberries?’?This was what Xie Dong was thinking back then.

He even had walked over and picked a strawberry. As a normal zombie, he wasn’t able to smell anything but human beings. Therefore, he couldn’t detect the suffocating odor of the strawberry. He took a bite, but as he tasted no flavor, it felt like biting wax. Hence, he disliked this strawberry field very much deep down.

Consequently, his confusion about the reason why Lin Qiao planted strawberries deepened. But, when he saw her wash them and then put them in a bowl for Wu Yueling, he understood why.

There was a rabbit in Lin Qiao’s space, and Xie Dong had seen it as well. However, he had absolutely no interest in it. Therefore, when she asked him if he had smelled the aroma of the rabbit, he looked at her confusedly.

Everyone in this post-apocalyptic world knew that zombies ate no other living things except human beings.

At last, Lin Qiao told him that she are rabbits and mice, and that those animals tasted not that bad. Hearing that, he stared at her with his eyes again filled with puzzlement.

‘What kind of a zombie is she? Where did this alien come from?’?He wondered.

She had memories and an exceptionally sharp sense of smell; she could control herself from eating human beings; grew strawberries; and had such a large, precious space. If these were still acceptable, she was also able to absorb the spaces of others and turn them into hers, which was a little terrifying indeed.

What was even scarier, not only did she have memories, but also human-level intelligence!
